Yes they can. Upon completion of an initial consultation, you and your attorney may decide to proceed with further legal action. In certain situations, attorney liability may require plan attorneys to ask for a retainer from the member prior to providing some of the free legal services. This may be required because, when an attorney sends a letter or makes a phone call on your behalf, the attorney may be committed to respond to a follow up letter or phone call from the other party.

Plan Attorneys - Questions & Answers

We have over 20,000 attorneys nationwide and in Puerto Rico. We connect each member to a network attorney based on the requested area of law as close to their home or office as possible (generally within 30 miles). Although some times an attorney can be located outside a member's desired range, it is well worth the travel time if a member can save hundreds to thousands of dollars. Keep in mind, legal assistance can be handled over the phone, by fax or by e-mail. Join Now

Yes. The legal plans include phone and face-to-face consultations with live attorneys. Since attorneys are often in deposition or court and as such they may not call back for two or three
days. Accepting a case is left to the personal judgement of the attorney. The attorney may determine that the case lacks merit in which case, they are truly trying to save the member the time and money of pursuing a potential losing case. In this situation, members should contact Member Services and request another attorney. They may use as many plan member attorneys as they like. Results with the next attorney could differ.Join Now
